Description

The Easton Reflex is back and better than ever! For years the Reflex has been the go-to bat for players looking to get a bat with great pop at a great price. Made from Easton's 7050 Aircraft Alloy, the Reflex is a durable bat that's going to last. The Reflex is topped off by a blasting cap that increases the explosiveness of the ball coming off the bat. Easton employs a new technology with the Reflex, called Brace Barrel. This patent pending technology locates critical points in the barrel to achieve BBCOR compliance while still minimizing swing weight. With a cushioned grip on the 31/32 Inch thin tapered handle, the Reflex gives the player an extremely comfortable and in-control feeling when stepping into the batter's box. With it's 2 5/8 Inch barrel, this -3 adult model is BBCOR certified and is approved for play in high school and college. Easton: Know-Feel-Be The Difference. The Easton Reflex comes with a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Pros: VALUE! Pop seems similar to other BBCOR bats. We in California must already comply with BBCOR even a middle School level. the reflex is the Best BBCOR value. And if you think about it All BBOCR bats have a power limit. So might as well shop the value. He is happy with the balance and in a -3 bat he swings fater with the 30" bat. No longer needs to struggle with a 32"

Cons: So Far NONE. My son is typical teenager. He wants the best bat out there. After he tried the school's Omaha bats he is still happy with his own Reflex! The reflex is also best value for 30 and 31 inch bats. Why spend a fortune when you know they will out grow it?

Pros: It is one of the best one piece BBCOR bats. It has a lot of pop if you hit it on the sweet spot

Cons: Stings if you don't hit it on the sweet spot, but so do most of the BBCOR bats.

Pros: This bat has great pop! I got a 34" for my 17 yrs old son; he says feels like a 33. Very good balance. Large sweetspot!

Cons: It is a BBCOR, and the sound of the bat hitting the ball will tell you that, but that ball will go! A 9 out of 10!

MJ

Pros: Bought this for my 14 year old so he could get used to the -3 and BBCORE during fall ball and winter workouts and we were actually surprized on how well it performed. Seems to have some pop and and he actually likes it and has used it in both games and the cage. For what we paid, its well worth the money. He has some nice hits with it already in the 8 games he has used it. He thinks the sound changed after a couple hundred hits in the cage so maybe it is breaking in but it could just be him thinking that.

Cons: Really have not seen any issues to complain about. Good bat for under $100.00.

Pros: Amazing bat - we intially bought the Reflex to get our boy used to using a BBCOR for freshman ball after seven years of DiMarini composite bats. We didn't want to spend a lot so it was perfect. He started using the Reflex and loves it. He has compared it to $300-$400 bats and believes it hits better. It is balanced and he says it has more pop than the DiMarinis. He loves it so much, that when given the option of getting a new $300-$400 bat for Christmas, he asked for another Reflex!

Cons: None - don't spend the money on the expensive ones...

Pros: Price was good and why we bought it to get used to BBCORE.

Cons: Does not have a lot of pop. To much vibration when the temp is cool. He swung it all winter in workouts and also in games in Phoenix so gave it a good test. Just does not have the pop and swing like his Rip It Bat. It was priced way under $100.00 so were not disapointed. It served its purpose.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the Easton Reflex BBCOR Baseball Bat: BX74? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

What is the difference between this bat and the Easton Hammer? Which bat hits better in your opinion? Gooey
The Reflex is made with a stronger, higher performing alloy. I've hit with both and I would rank the Reflex a notch or two above the Hammer in terms of performance and feel.
JH
How does this bat compare to the Easton Typhoon? Which is better in your opinion and what are the differences between the two bats? benboy710
The Reflex is made from a higher grade of alloy that will be stronger and better performing. Both are great bats under $100, but the Reflex will probably be a notch above the Typhoon in terms of performance.
JH
is the bats bbcor certified after 2011 THE BOULDER
This bat is BBCOR certified and will be legal for 2011, 2012 and beyond.
JH
Would you say this is the best BBCOR bat (under $200) out there? Trotsky
Are we counting the bats retailing at $199.99 since they are technically under $200? If we are, I would definitely put bats like the Rawlings 5150, Easton Rival, Marucci Cat 5, Nike Aero M1, and Louisville TPX Omaha over the Easton Reflex. However, if we"re not counting those bats at $199.99, the Reflex is a great option. It is one of the better performing and durable bats under $199.99. Some people will argue that other bats like the Rawlings Plasma and Mattingly V-Force are better, but that is strictly because a lot of hitting comes down to personal preference. There is not true number one bat out there.
Mark
Aren't all the bbcor bats supposed to be the same? If they are then why are some more $$$ than others? Are we paying for name? baseballkid399
The same way there were different levels of the BESR, there are different levels of the BBCOR. Though they all meet the BBCOR standards, some push the limits and go right to the edge of what's allowed.
lkh
Is this bat noticably better than the Easton Typhoon? I really liked the besr version, but not sure about which one to get. Batboy32
Yes, it is going to be better than the Typhoon because of the alloy that is used in the Reflex.
K.B.
Does this bat have any composite in it? Brandon
No, this is going to be a one piece full alloy.
John
is this bat usssa approved for 2012 14 year olds mudpuppy
This bat does not have the USSSA stamp. This is BBCOR only
KG
How you compare this bat with some of the DeMarini bats. M.Crespi
The Reflex is a one piece all alloy bat with great pop. The DeMarini's are usually 2 piece bats, some are alloy barrel and composite handles, some are 2 piece all composite. Each offers something different.
Linda
What is the difference in a reflex and the more expensive easton bbcor's? They all seem to hit similar. Michael
The more expensive bats will be closer to the BBCOR standards. The cheaper bats will be further from the BBCOR standards and they will not have as much pop.
Todd
do have the 1.15 bpf bat for the same price? rod
We do not have a Reflex with the 1.15 bpf marked on it for the same price
Sean
Is the the weight of this bat -3 Big S
Yes, this is a drop 3 model.
John
Does the reflex have rings in the barrel? Dyl
Yes, it has the Brace barrel technology.This patent pending technology locates critical points in the barrel to achieve BBCOR compliance while still minimizing swing weight.
Linda
I am currently looking for equipment for a fund raiser to donate to a high school. I choose this bat along with the typhoon due to reading all the reviews. I spoke with a few baseball players and they advised you need better to compete. Am I choosing the wrong bbcor? louie181
Actually, I do the purchase orders for the high schools, and we sell TONS of these to high schools. They are a 1 piece all alloy design, nice pop, great balance. We have a bat pack in these where you can get 3 of them for $149.99! These bats are not the $300 bats, but perform quite well for the price. Also, perfect for fundraisers.
Linda
What is the difference between the Reflex BX74 and the Reflex BX81 other than price? Tim
It is the same other than the graphics. The alloy is the same, weighting is the same.
Linda
What is the difference between these two bats, same name different model and appreance. you have them in a bat pack together. Easton Reflex BBCOR: BX74 & BX81 Adult Dave
The BX81 is just the newer model. There isn't a difference between the two models.
Kara

The BX81 replaced the BX74, other than that they are very similar models
john
Can this bat be used in usssa tournaments and stuff like this for 14u teams? Camden
Yes. It can be used in USSSA, but it is not required until age 15.
Kara
Is this bat a little top heavy? Denver
This bat is going to have a balanced feel to it
Sean
This bat is nicely balanced.
Linda
I purchased this bat last year, 2011, except the one I received did not have the bbcor rating. Would the bat I received be bbcor rated and just not marked? scott
The 2011 model will not be BBCOR approved
John
Is it a well balanced bat? My son, a 6th grader, may get to play at the JV level due to the school not having enough players to field multiple teams. He plays travel ball, but swings a drop 10. He will have to transition to the drop 3 for school from now on. I want a well balanced bat at a good price. Brad
This bat is going to be balanced and help improve his swing speed. Great bat for the price
Ryan
Does this bat have a bbcor stamp on it? Lang
Yes, this bat is stamped BBCOR
Sean

The BX81 is just the newest model out.
John
There are two Easton Reflexes what is the difference and which is better Ryan
The BX74 is an older model. The new model is the BX81. Both bats are 100% alloy and have durable barrels.
KG
my son is 13 years old and he needs a bbcord bat , but im not sure if this bat is good for him. he is only 103 pounds. can you help me. maria
The BX74 is actually an excellent choice for a younger player looking for a BBCOR bat. It comes in smaller lengths and weights than most BBCOR bats.
KB
Hey guys. I am playing Travel Ball for the first time this spring/summer, and i am wondering if this bat is okay to use. I am in 8th grade. Thank you Jacob
